Reimagining a strong, resilient, and equitable workforce system.

Through advocacy campaigns, National Skills Coalition unites workers, students, businesses, and practitioners in building a workforce system where everyone has a fair shot at economic prosperity.

Our Advocacy Campaigns

A New Promise of Work

NSC calls for workforce development to be treated not as a "second-choice" system, but as a first-choice investment in people and the economy, and will develop a forward-looking national workforce policy agenda to be released in 2027.

Keep Our Workforce Strong

Keep Our Workforce Strong calls on Congress to reject harmful cuts and on state leaders to protect these critical investments — ensuring our workforce and economy stay strong.

Making College Work

NSC is working to ensure Workforce Pell delivers on its promise, and is supported by smart workforce strategies that connect learning to opportunity.
